Chapter 6.2, Problem 6SC

Explanation of Solution

Given program:

//Definition of class "Program"

public class program

{

    //Definition of class main

    public static void main(String[] args)

    {

//initialize variable n

        int n = 5;

//while loop executes

        while(n>=0)

        {

    //decrement the value of n

            n--;

            //Print the statement

            System.out.println(n);

        }

    }

}

Hand-tracing above code:

• In the above code, there is only one variable that is “n”.
• First “n” is initialized as 5 before the loop is entered.
• When “n” is greater than or equal to 0, then enter the loop and decrement the value of “n” by 1.
• Now the output value becomes “4”. Again repeat the loop...
